Denis Franceskin

Denis Franceskin was the Secretary of the National Front of France (FN) abroad. Franceskin mostly operated in the United States, coordinating the activities of FN supporters overseas, and he was interviewed by France 24 on 23 April 2017, the day that Marine Le Pen made it to the second round of the election. Franceskin claimed that the FN stood up for the "forgotten people", and he praised Russian dictator Vladimir Putin's willingness to meet with Le Pen if she became president.
